  1. Same here. It's insane to think they're evaluating anything based on polls that couldn't look more like scams if they tried.
  2. I thought Biden was too old in 2020. I know he's too old now. But it doesn't matter. Obama 2.0 isn't on the sidelines warming up and ready to come in. None of the possible alternative candidates offer a substantially better chance of winning (all are polling just about even with Biden against Trump, well within the margin of error) and none but Harris would even want to try because starting a campaign from scratch with 3 months to go would be a nightmare. Just like in 2020, our candidate is "not Trump." Even if Biden steps aside for Harris or if the party somehow nominated and coalesced behind another ticket entirely, the candidate wouldn't be Obama 2.0, it would still be "not Trump." Biden was the acceptable old white guy in 2020 who couldn't even really get the message across then. Yes he's worse now, but not really even that much worse. His decline is being magnified and everyone is doomposting because most people wanted to believe for the past 3.5 years that there was no way that Trump could possibly get re-elected and now they're finally confronting reality. But this was always going to be a close election, just like the last one, for numerous structural and social reasons that have nothing to do with who the Democratic candidate is.
  3. Doomposting is loser shit for losers. You people seriously want to let France and the UK do a better job against fascism than the US. Pathetic.
  4. 90% of Americans have no clue who Wes Moore is.
  5. This is the most terrified and miserable man on the planet: I think that’s wonderful.
  6. Yeah, they’re worse. Japan attacked an enemy state. Trumpers will be more akin to the Nazis rounding up fellow citizens into ghettos and concentration camps.
  7. Nobody needs to hear a lecture about normal people from a libertarian tradcath.
  8. Also, for all his supposed senility, Biden going back to the progressive wishlist when things are looking down shows better political instincts than Pelosi and Schiff have ever shown. For all his problems as a candidate, Biden's theory of politics has always been way above replacement level compared to pretty much any other moderate Democrat. I've been worried that he lost that with Ron Klain gone, but it doesn't look like he has. AOC needs to be running the whole fucking party within the next 5-10 years or it deserves to be bulldozed. It's wild how bad most Dems are at understanding politics compared to her.
  9. Crossposting from the SCOTUS thread: They also leaked yesterday that they're working on a nationwide rent control proposal. If Joe's answer to all the doomer loser shit from the caucus is to just announce a huge laundry list of popular and necessary policies and reforms, I'm here for it.
  10. Biden set to announce support for major Supreme Court changes: Hell yeah. Fuck em up, Joe.
  11. *posts insane rant about Democrats giving everyone fentanyl water* "Why is everyone accusing me of being political?!?!"
  12. Yeah, and that'll all dry up very quickly if the GOP controls election machinery in enough states to effectively rig the next election.
  13. I'd be pretty happy with Kamala at the top of the ticket, but Pelosi, Schiff, et al have complete tin ears for politics and I don't put any stock in their beliefs about Biden's electability. But either way, all this loser shit leaking to the press about how doomed they all are with him at the top needs to fucking stop. If they think that's going to get Irish Grandpa Joe to see things their way, they're even dumber than I think they are.
  14. I can't wait to read the SCOTUS ruling that upholds this.
  15. How about instead of whining about whatever you think “the American public” thinks, you pussies cowboy the fuck up and start actually helping? The election is a fucking coinflip right now and there’s plenty of time left to remind people who haven’t been paying much attention the last few years why Trump sucks so goddamned much. Look around the world right now. The right has collapsed in the UK, just got repudiated by normies in France, and have faced significant electoral setbacks recently in Turkey and India. They’re not invincible. They’re fucking losers who win when their opposition splits and stays home because they think the right can’t be stopped. But one way or another the fascists will lose, because the first and last thing every fascist is is a fucking loser, but it’ll be a lot fucking easier to beat these assholes at the ballot box than in a civil war. Jesus fucking Christ, act like goddamned men.
  16. Vance as president would be a puppet for Peter Thiel.
  17. Do you think 9/11 was an inside job?
  18. Anyone who actually watches the RNC is a deranged pervert who needs to be forcibly committed.
  19. He's doomed now.
  20. It’s posts like this that kind of give away your whole “I hate Trump!” act as bullshit. She probably wouldn’t have missed.
  21. It's likely Dem voters who would prefer a candidate other than Biden (but can't decide which other candidate they'd prefer). Trump beat Hillary in 2016 by spending the last weeks of his campaign pretending that he'd actually be a pretty normal president. That assuaged enough fence sitters to give him a shot. He's going to have a much harder time doing that this time.
  22. Sure thing Rex, independents are totally fired up to go vote for Trump now that a Republican 20 year old took a shot at him to try to start a race war.
  23. No, that gap has been consistent for months.
